Was exceptional

Everything - location is excellent and the facilities and food are generally outstanding.

Super friendly staff, amazing location, and the hotel has a lovely “old era” vibe

Everything was fantastic.

Très bien situé dans le quartier de sea point sur le front de mer. La bâtisse est très belle avec un magnifique patio et la cuisine est excellente.

Nous pensions que la junior avait un coin salon à part pour notre fils mais en fait tout est dans la même pièce. Le contenu du mini bar est disponible sur demande seulement et au départ nous n’avions pas de bouteille d’eau dans la chambre. Bref l’endroit est super mais le service pourrait être amélioré

Great character and atmosphere

Sehr gute Lage direkt vor der Promenade. Tolles Frühstücksbuffet und gute Auswahl an Speisen im Restaurant. Zimmer sehr geräumig und täglich gereinigt. Freundliches Personal. Bar gut ausgestattet.

Management hat anscheinend wieder gewechselt. Personal anscheinend auch. Komme seit vielen Jahren und habe bemerkt, dass die alte Freundlichkeit fehlt. Manche freebies gibt es auch nicht mehr: gratis Schuttledienst zur V&A. Parkplätze werden extra verrechnet.

Everything was amazing staff, rooms , location, restaurant ,it’s made my experience like a luxury trip many thanks to all 🌺

Equipe do café da manhã muito mal humorada

Great breakfast, we really enjoyed it. It was really shame that the pool area was under remodelations so we couldn't use it but overall it was a great stay.

Pool remodeling

Ooh!!! Everything!!! The location, the property and the people. The ambiance!!! Definitely deserves a comeback. Had an amazing stay.

Acomodação

Atendimento no café da manhã

Excellent location and access to tourist bus services with shuttle service to the Waterfront

Shuttle service concludes to early

Hotel was lovely, kindly letting us have a later check out due to flight leaving later. Breakfast was varied and yummy. Safe and secure car parking, staff super helpful and friendly. Would likely recommend.

Amazing staff, beautifully curated hotel with a great bar and restaurant.

The rooms are a bit tiny for the price (especially for off season)

Everything!

Under renovation when I visited.

10/10 A great property to stay!!!

All great!!

Posizione davanti all’oceano Cortesia dello staff Camera molto spaziosa e ben arredata

The restaurant food was delicious. Loved the choices on the breakfast menu/ buffet.

Beautiful colonial hotel

The position was great , everything about this hotel was 10/10

N/a

Large spacious room and bathroom, comfortable bed, amazingly friendly and helpful staff, excellent position on the sea front. Beautiful building. Amazing lighting in the reception area and view onto the internal courtyard. Delicious breakfast.

Water was cold in the shower, but that situation was easily resolved. The breakfast was served indoors due to the weather, the tables should have table cloths in keeping with the gracious building,

Location

We stay at Winchester Hotel every June for a few days and it is always a treat!

I have loved this place for many years, since it being known as Winchester Mansions. I was welcomed with a fabulous room upgrade and felt treated like a VIP for my whole stay. The staff are all so good at their job, they remembered my name and my preferences at breakfast and in the bar, little things really make a place special. The food and atmosphere at Harvey’s is fabulous, and the hotel location is perfect for the Sea Point promenade and local vibe, plus only a short uber ride to beaches, waterfront and other Cape Town attractions.

Nothing, it is one of my favourite places to stay.

breakfast was excellent, really tasty and great

Wish location was a bit nearer the VRA

The attention to detail by the hotel manager was outstanding - had to leave the hotel at 5:30 and he offered to have breakfast prepared before the departure. I requested just a coffee and it was ready and waiting for me at 5:30

Breakfast was excellent. Room was lovely, and the location at Sea Point was beautiful.

I was there for the Cape Town marathon, and even though the website said there would be a special pre race menu for runners, there wasn't. At the last minute I had to pivot and try to find a nearby restaurant. The front desk recommended a place but wouldn't make a reservation for me (stating they didn't take reservations and I'd have no problem getting in) This was NOT the case the night before the marathon with everyone wanting a pasta dinner!

Beautiful design and staff

The fact that they didn’t mention there was a marathon in lol

Uitvalbasis om kaapstad te bezoeken

The rooms were well decorated and appointed. I loved the mural behind the bed which gave it a touch of fun. The room seemed small but was actually quite spacious and enough for two people. The tea and coffee service was lovely with little biscotti on the side. I also enjoyed the room service, the quant pool and the beautiful restaurant. Breakfast was absolutely marvelous with anything you could want, delicious fresh fruits, pastries, meats and cooked warm meals. The dinner was absolutely fantastic! In fact it was some of the best food and service I had in Cape Town. If you are just looking for a snack their biltong is to die for. I enjoyed some at the pool with a couple of cocktails - perfect! I didn't get to use the spa, but the spa also looked amazing. The location was very appealing to us and we enjoyed some walks along the water every morning.

I didn't care for the terrible pillows. They were so hard and hurt my neck. Both my friend and I struggled immensely with the pillows. I also didn't like the weird cupboard space. There's a tiny tiny closet in the hall. So if you are staying more than a couple of nights that would be problematic. I also didn't like the noise in the evenings. It traveled up the building, so you could only get to sleep by 11 pm. I'm not sure if it's noisy all nights or just on the weekends. In the morning people go down early for breakfast in the courtyard and once again the noise travels up and it's very loud. All in all it's a good little stay but the pillows and noise made it difficult to get good sleep. I wouldn't recommend it for light sleepers or people looking for a restful and quiet hotel.

Historic feel with modern amenities

amazing breakfast - lovely fruit and yogurt and my poached eggs and toast were cooked and served to perfection - great staff service

Location, staff, breakfast choice.

Rooms were a but dark.

My stay at The Winchester Hotel was absolutely wonderful. The hotel’s aesthetic is stunning, with a beautifully curated and luxurious atmosphere throughout. Our suite was spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean at all times. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, with Beverly going above and beyond to make our stay special. The location is also perfect, with easy access to the promenade and nearby attractions.

Good location outside the main shopping and commercial areas but within easy taxi ride of everywhere. We were there during a major storm but in better weather the sea front opposite would be full of people and a great place to relax. Room was spacious and very well fitted out - great shower set up. Breakfast was a feast that could keep you going all day Staff very attentive and helfpul

Very small point - plug sockets not well thought out so you had to keep unplugging one device to connect another - eg couldn't have kettle and fridge on at the same time.

We LOVED this hotel! It’s gorgeous and the staff is welcoming and so helpful. The rooms are very large and comfortable. The interior courtyard and pool are beautiful but unfortunately it rained the whole time we were there so we didn’t get to use either. Still, breakfast inside with a view of the ocean was awesome. The food included with breakfast was delicious, as were the coffee drinks (the dirty chais were our favorite). There were some nice restaurants within walking distance, although most of the tourist areas were a bit further—easy to reach using the shuttle or very cheap Ubers. When my phone and wallet were stolen (in a very different area far from the hotel), the staff was so incredibly helpful with helping us contact credit card companies, etc. and even offering to drive me to the police station. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Loved the buffet. And the sunset vibs

Excellent location with lots of restaurants nearby and easy to walk everywhere. The restaurants at the hotel are great too! Breakfast was amazing and we loved having sundowners at the Shoreditch restaurant. All the staff are so friendly and helpful. The hotel has an amazing energy that instantly makes you feel like you’re on holiday. Will definitely be back!

Este lugar es perfecto para estar cerca de todo y con buenas vistas desde Sea Point. La restauración en este hotel es espectacular con platos variados y sabores muy buenos, recomendable 100%. el personal supe profesional y los servicios top por su parte incluido el SPA con muy buenas instalaciones.

No tengo puntos malos

Easy in and out. Lovely reception team. Easy to book online.

Service in the restaurant on the night was disappointing. Slow . I would have had another glass of wine had someone bothered to come around to me again. Pushed me hard to order, delivered the food and glass of wine and disappered.

Well maintained, good design and layout. Breakfast was great and staff were amazing.

Atmosfera mista, servis, cistota, lokalita

Zpozdene predani pokoje

We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! It’s stunning and the location is ideal. One road over there are tons of store, cafes and restaurants and across the st is the pier. Perfect !

WiFi was our for some of our stay which really wasn’t ideal and was prohibitive

Красивый отель, приятное времяпрепровождение, все очень красиво, атмосферно, расположение нас устроило , номер большой

Завтрак скудный, в последний день почему-то не поставили горячие закуски ( омлет, овощи). Свежие соки за плату , вафли за плату . В таком отеле с таким уровнем цен не солидно и в принципе быть не должно

Fantastic location, superb staff, great food

Everything was perfect taken to the next level by the most amazing staff

Staff - Every staff member I meet, walked by, smiled and greet me.

It’s beautiful.

The room I was in had no ventilation.

The courtyard is beautiful.

Our family room must have been above the kitchen, lots of unpleasant food smells and a really uninspiring view.

Amazing location, small and quiet hotel with personal touch. Excellent service and delicious breakfast.

Super friendly and helpful staff, great location, excellent breakfast selection, spacious, well-appointed room. Beautiful courtyard garden.

Wunderschönes Hotel mit sehr freundlichen Mitarbeitern und sehr gutem Frühstück. Pool ist auch sehr gut und die Lage zu allem zentral gelegen . Hotel hat einen Shuttle Service . Das Essen um Hotelrestaurant ist sehr gut .

The facility was beautiful, clean, the staff very friendly and the food was very good, ample variety and the spa was simply magical!

The room we stayed in was extremely small and the staff at the courtyard were unpleasant, discriminating almost, they looked at us and immediately said it was full and only reserved for guests, not knowing that we were guests ourselves and despite us seeing a lot of walk'ins from outside the hotel being ushered in, we had to escalate the matter to someone senior and suddenly seating magically appeared.

The room, breakfast and location were incredible. The staff were professional, friendly and provided a welcoming and happy atmosphere in the hotel.

NA

Ambience... Well trained team of Staff... Location at Seapoint....

Loss of Wi-fi and TV reception!

The location, the views, the staff and the courtyard were great. The only negative is that we did not stay longer. We also made use of the spa facilities and not could recommend the entire stay enough.

The WiFi was not great. It was down for a few hours.

Beautiful property in an amazing location.

The courtyard was amazing with beautiful bougainvillea climbing the walls of the building. Sunset on the porch was something to behold.

Rooms are fresh, modern and up to date. Bathroom amenities good quality. Staff incredibly nice - throughout every step of the journey: doorman to check-in to pool service to breakfast and restaurant team to housekeeping team. Very, very good!

Too many maintenance issues
